The Crimson J ,2I em fEKDH For th MR. BAIRD There's a person in our faculty, Who is quite a ladies' man. To get himself in well with them He will do whate'er he can. Tho generally so modest, He's been acting up of late. I think he's trying to find himself A charming little mate. For the other day in assembly, He walked up to Misses G. and M., And smiling most engagingly, He began to talk to them. He talked and smiled and even winked To the ladies so fair, And Mr. Shafer from his desk Saw him and pulled his hair. Then Mr. Baird grew very red And dropped his head most shamefully. But since that day he's been quite cross And treats his classes disdainfully. Now what do you think is the matter? Oh, why does he act so queer? Since that tragic day in assembly When he winked at the ladies so dear. l've tried to solve the solution, But all I've found was that He grew very red and angry When asked, VVhy the new hat PU Oh, Mr. Baird, heed my advice And leave the ladies alone, Because if you don't, they'll get you, I know, And think how the school would groan. eir eyes are upon their -ways.',4THE FACULTY Sixteen
